2 Kings, Chapter 5 - Now I Know | Prophets of Israel Daily

Could a little girl from the Land of Israel teach a mighty general and the world, that there is a God in Israel? In 2 Kings Chapter 5, Naaman, the powerful commander of Aram, suffers from leprosy. A young Israelite girl, taken captive and serving in his household, tells him about the prophet Elisha. Her simple, unwavering faith sets a remarkable chain of events in motion. Naaman must humble himself, wash seven times in the Jordan River, and discover that the healing he seeks cannot be bought with silver or gold. Meanwhile, Elisha's servant Gehazi learns the terrible consequences of greed and forgetting whom he truly serves. Through this powerful chapter, Ari Abramowitz and Jeremy Gimpel explore faith, humility, the holiness of the Land of Israel, and the enduring message that there is a God in Israel. In this episode of Prophets of Israel Daily, we explore: -The Faith of a Little Israelite Girl: How a nameless young captive's unwavering faith leads Naaman toward the prophet Elisha—and the God of Israel. -From Agam Berger to Ancient Israel: Jeremy draws a moving connection between the biblical girl and the modern Israeli hostage who held fast to her faith in captivity. -Why the Jordan River? Naaman expects a grand miracle, but his healing requires humility and obedience. What can his journey teach us when our own answers seem slow to come? -The Holiness of the Land of Israel: From Naaman's request for Israelite earth to the history of the Uganda proposal, discover why the Jewish people's connection to this land is about more than geography. -When Faith Becomes a Transaction: Gehazi's greed stands in stark contrast to Elisha's integrity. Learn why standing near a holy person is not the same as standing before God. 🌿 JOIN THE LAND OF ISRAEL FELLOWSHIP — TRY IT FREE! 👉 Start your FREE Fellowship trial: https://bit.ly/4pn8S2T #ProphetsOfIsraelDaily #2Kings5 #BookOf2Kings #BibleStudy #LandOfIsrael #GodOfIsrael #BiblicalHistory #TorahStudy #IsraelBibleStudy #LandOfIsraelNetwork
